Meet Padma — Your Insider Guide to Career Reinvention

I’m Padma, a former recruiter and talent leader turned career coach. Over 25 years, I’ve helped senior women in marketing, PR, and digital reclaim visibility and land roles that truly reflect their worth.

Unlike other coaches, I’ve seen hiring from every angle—because I lived it. I know how your experience gets filtered out, misunderstood, or underestimated. But I also know how to reposition it as your game-changing advantage.

You’ve spent your career delivering brilliant work. Now it’s time someone invested in your success.

Specialised Expertise

I’ve spent nearly a decade working exclusively in marketing, PR, and digital—so I understand your world inside and out.

Real-World Insight

I’ve been in the senior seat and the recruiter’s chair—and I’ve felt the burnout, the overwhelm, and the frustration of not being seen.

Mission rooted in change

I walked away from a toxic leadership role—burnt-out, overlooked, and invisible—even while working harder than ever. That’s why I coach. To help you escape careers that deplete you and land where you’re celebrated.
